## EHDSEncounter Mapping

EHDSEncounter -> Encounter (HDR)
Ongoing alignment: The Xt-EHR logical models are under active revision and continuous refinement. Updates from Xt-EHR will be progressively incorporated into this Implementation Guide to maintain alignment with the evolving EHDS specifications.

### EHDSEncounter -> Encounter (HDR)

This page explains how conceptual elements from the EHDSEncounter logical model are expressed in the corresponding FHIR EncounterEuHdr profile used by this Implementation Guide.

Mapping Context

- Source logical model: EHDSEncounter
- Target FHIR profile: EncounterEuHdr
